rider from tree branches or flying
debris way better than a standard
plastic handguard. Plus, the kits protect up front, on top and underneath.
That’s something most handguards
can’t do. For wintertime riding we
won’t leave home without installing
a pair of the mitts on every cold day.

PRODUCT EVALUATION

❏; ATVing is a year-round sport.
Depending on where you live in the
country dictates what type of riding you will be doing in the winter
months. However, chances are you
will still encounter cool or downright
cold weather. Plus, when you factor
in a 50-mph speed of an ATV, the
word “bitter” quickly comes to mind.
On the positive side, if your body can
stay comfortable on a cold ride, the
experience could be epic.

QuadBoss has just released a new
pair of ATV mitts that will help make
those winter rides more enjoyable,
and with a bargain price of $28.99 per
pair, we had to share them with you.
The Reflective Series ATV mitts simply
slide onto the handlebars of any ATV
sport or utility ATV. They are just big
enough to clear your controls, and
they stay in place with a sturdy Velcro
strap. We installed them on a Honda
Rancher for the test and they fit great.

On the outside, 600-denier polyesterwicks away rain and deflects branch-es along the trail.

At $28.99 the Reflective Series ATV
mitts are the most affordable full-coverage handguards we have ever
seen. The padded kit will protect the

To take advantage of the protection
provided from these kits, simply push
your hand in the opening and grab the
handlebar. The kits would work great
in muddy conditions as well as in the
extreme cold. The mitts are lightweight
(under a pound each) and fit on every
machine we have in our stable.

The Reflective Series ATV kits are simple to install and easy to use, providing
protection any time of year. If it seems
weird not being able to see your hands
or controls while riding, QuadBoss
offers a pair of similar ($59) kits that
have a clear plastic window on top. The
mitts we tested without the window are
only $28.99 per pair.
